iQOO officially unveiled two new phones in China tonight — the Neo11 Ultra Edition and the Z11S. The brand is positioning the Neo11 Ultra Edition as the “only performance flagship in the industry with a 2K display and a 9100mAh battery,” leaning hard into screen quality and endurance as its two headline selling points.
Let’s start with the Neo11 Ultra Edition. The design has been given a noticeable refresh, with the rear cameras now arranged horizontally and finished with a distinctive texture that makes the phone easy to recognise at a glance.
Up front sits a 6.83-inch 2K, 144Hz OLED flat display, marking the global debut of Visionox’s F2 luminescent material. Combined with an “angstrom-level evaporation process,” the panel achieves higher luminous efficiency. iQOO states harmful blue light is kept below 5%, and the screen also comes with a new generation of Circular Polarized Light 2.0 along with a 1nit night-eye-care mode, so scrolling through your phone at night should be easier on the eyes.
The touch chip is the same one found on the iQOO 15 Ultra, supporting a multi-finger touch sampling rate of up to 500Hz and an instantaneous touch sampling rate of up to 4000Hz — good news for gamers who want their taps to register instantly.
Under the hood is the globally-first MediaTek Dimensity 9500M, co-developed by iQOO and MediaTek. It’s built on a 3nm process with an all-big-core CPU architecture, and iQOO has baked its new-generation Monster super-core engine directly into the chip, working alongside the company’s self-developed Q2 gaming chip.
As a phone built with gaming in mind, it also comes with an all-new 8K Ice Dome 3D VC cooling system that boosts heat dissipation efficiency by 5%, while the Monster engine helps pre-empt frame drops for smoother, more stable gameplay. iQOO claims the phone can run demanding mobile games at full frame rate for a full hour while charging.
Battery life, though, is really where this phone shines. The 9100mAh cell is the largest ever fitted to a Neo-series device, a jump of 1600mAh over the previous Neo11’s 7500mAh battery, and it supports 100W fast charging. iQOO also says the battery is built to last, retaining at least 80% of its health even after four years of use.
On the camera front, there’s a 16MP front shooter, paired with a 50MP main rear camera and an 8MP ultra-wide lens. The phone is rated IP68/IP69 for dust and water resistance, includes a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, and measures 8.6mm thick while weighing 225g.
Launched alongside it is the iQOO Z11S, which takes a different approach altogether, marketed as a “performance and battery life powerhouse.” It runs on the full-spec Dimensity 7500 chipset paired with a 144Hz eye-care gaming display, and its battery capacity is even more extreme at 10,000mAh — making it iQOO’s first-ever phone to break the five-digit mAh mark.
It also carries IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance and has passed seven military-grade durability tests, so build quality shouldn’t be a concern either. Colour options include Snow Isle White, Endless Light, and Ink Rock Black.
The Z11S is now available across all channels with four storage configurations. The 8GB+128GB variant retails at 1999 yuan (~RM1,211), the 8GB+256GB at 2199 yuan (~RM1,333), the 12GB+256GB at 2499 yuan (~RM1,514), while the top-spec 12GB+512GB comes in at 2899 yuan (~RM1,757). Given the massive 10,000mAh battery on board, this pricing looks fairly competitive against similarly-specced rivals.
The Neo11 Ultra Edition also comes in four storage options at retail price. The 12GB+256GB model is priced at 3699 yuan (~RM2,242), the 16GB+256GB at 4099 yuan (~RM2,484), the 12GB+512GB at 4299 yuan (~RM2,605), and the top-tier 16GB+512GB tops out at 4699 yuan (~RM2,847).
As for pricing and availability, there’s currently no word on whether either device will make it beyond China to international markets, including Malaysia. Worth noting too — the Neo11 series as a whole has yet to officially land in Malaysia, so fans hoping to get their hands on this Ultra Edition locally may need to wait a while longer.
